I finally bit and got the Beersmith program for my computer last night after finding an all grain Founder Centennial Clone Recipe on this site. Well I entered everything in and tried to convert it over to Extract (not going all grain for a while based on having to move again in the near future). My problem is that I am having a hard time with the calcs and the amount of water and batch size. Can you all help to make sure I am not out in left field and my recipe will yield something close to what I am shooting for? Below is the all grain version:
